Description: Darth Tyranus/Count Dooku, Revenge of the SithPrefix: SLDetachment:Sith Lord Detachment Context: Episode III: Revenge of the SIthThe leader of the Confederacy of Independent Systems and Sith apprentice to Darth Sidious. The waning power of the CIS is reflected in the fading colours of this Sith Lord's attire.

The Sith Lord Detachment defines additional, optional levels of costuming excellence. In the page below, items listed under "For level two certification" are recommended features that will greatly improve the quality of the costume. These items are not required for 501st membership, but are highly recommended. Items listed under "For level three certification" are some of the highest level accuracy features for those who strive to be screen accurate. These items are also not required for 501st membership.

Also note that these two additional "certification levels" DO NOT correspond to the Advanced Standards program of the Sith Lord Detachment, and you are encouraged to visit the Sith Lord Detachment Forum for more information.

The following costume components are present and appear as described below.

HairFor 501st approval:

The hair is not parted.

It is combed straight back from a slight widow's peak at the front. At the sides, the hair curves around until it is parallel with the sideburns. In the back, the hair is off of the neck.

The hair is colored or dyed white

For level two certification (if applicable):

The eyebrows should be dark grey in color.

For level three certification (if applicable):

Beard/Mustache/Make-Up or AgingFor 501st approval:

You can either use your own facial hair, or high quality costuming facial hair.

The mustache covers the area between the nose and lips, then tapers off past the edge of the lips and joins into the beard.

Beard is trimmed closely to the chin and side of the face. It tapers slightly as it goes up the sides of the face until it meets the sideburns. Facial hair should be colored or dyed white.

For level two certification (if applicable):

The mustache and under the lower lip should be dark grey in color.

Should have bags under the eyes, wrinkles, and liver spots to match film reference. Visit the Count Dooku facial details page for reference.

For level three certification (if applicable):

To be most accurate the beard should be trimmed and colored to match Christopher Lee's in the movie.

CapeFor 501st approval:

Made of medium brown, non-glossy fabric, wool or wool-equivalent material.

The cloak is fully lined with a satin-weave material that is a lighter brown than the cloak itself. It falls from the shoulders to just below the calves.

The upper portion of the cloak has front and back yolks with vertical lightly padded quilt lines. These run from the front to the back of the cloak at armpit level vertically, with one from the neck to the shoulder horizontally.

The back of the cloak collar sits slightly higher than the tunic collar in the back.

For level two certification (if applicable):

The cape should be made of wool in the appropriate color; Revenge of the Sith has a medium brown cloak with a lighter rustic-colored lining of a velvet/velour fabric.

The neck of the cape should come to a "peek" in the back, covering the back collar of the person's neck.
